Unless my understanding is wrong, the only way their info. would be
wrong is if the FSM is wrong because the stuff on alldata is copied -
not re-writeen, re-typed, or reformated - but taken directly
word-for-word, figure-for-figure out of the FSM.

(I will say that I took the bait on the CD-ROM manuals that
alldata/popular mechanics used to market about 10 or so years ago, and
they were fraudulently awful - worse than any hardcopy aftermarket
manual I've ever seen. However they apparently cleaned up their act
with the on-line subscription stuff. I don't know if they still sell
the CD's. If so, I hope it's just a copy of the on-line info. and that
they got out of the con business.)
